the majority of all life in the ocean and on earth uh on land is because of the ocean and the foundations of all life which is the plankton zooplankton, phytoplankton. without them it wouldn't have any life. we wouldn't be here. so we didn't know that in those days and so the curiosity of my dad was to keep going, going, going, and people would ask him what do you expect to find on your next dive? and he always said if i knew i wouldn't go. and uh what i say today myself is what is your best dive when they ask me and i say the next one. >> well i was just going to say that you've been diving the better part of 70 years. how much do we know about the ocean at this point? >> we don't know very much. we've only explored the shallow waters because so far the technology does not allow us to stay there deep for long periods of time. we're getting there. slowly getting there. as a matter of fact, there's new equipment which i've just been certified and i'm looking forward to... >> the exo-skeleton. >> the exosuit. where you can go down to 1000 feet in minutes, spend 10 hours you're totally free.

mccrayedy has been working on a way to predict the ocean level. >> ocean acid iffic aches is not yefrl. there were differences in the surface. >> are you optimistic that this was a tool that you can depend on. >> yep, i am. it's like the models used for whether forecasting. how are you forecasting. armed with real-time data. ben ware made adjustments - treating his water to reduce his acidity. can i look. >> sure. you make this any day. kind of like you are adding tone to the water. it's not quite the same kem cam. but similar. that is what we are doing. while they believe the method is helping oysters survive. it has not eliminated die offs. after good years, oyster lava are again dying in large numbers. there's more research done. showing that it is more serious consequences to the co2 to the water. >> we have been around for 120 years, and we want to be around for 120 years. this is a global issue. this is something all the world oceans are going to have to deal with at some point. >> important to us it's important to a lot of other people. we don't know all the effects and, you kno

>> well, the answer to that question is the indian ocean is a vast ocean. the modeling showed debris may turn up in this area between about 12 and 24 months depending on a bunch of factors. it was simply too difficult to do that and more a matter of waiting for something to wash up that was thought to be the best way of handling that. >> as a smart of time. initially, the search for mh370 involved a lot of resources. 22 planes, 19 ships, eight countries, as well. the fact we have found this particular piece of debris, how much more momentum would the search gather do you think? >> well, what this will do -- if it is confirmed that it is from a triple seven and we don't know that yet, and if it is confirmed it is from 370, and we don't know that, of course, either. if it is confirmed, the modelling that was produced by the university of western australia over 12 months ago indicated that this debris would come to the reunion island area about this time. so what it will do, it will confirm they are looking in the right place for this aircraft. it will give th

but for ocean ramsey the co-founder of hawaii-based one ocean diving is a dream come true. >> the first time i ever saw a shark i was really young. i just remember seeing it and thinking, wow, this animal is so beautiful and graceful. i ended up falling after it. i think i've been in love with them every since. >> ocean is a conservationist focus on sharks. she's been called the shark whisperer, she's been called crazy. just look at this photo. that's ocean swimming with a great white. >> what makes you love this animal that so many other people fear. >> i get to see them on a day-to-day basis, i get to see the reality of them how incredible they are. it's inspired me to speak up for them. >> ocean and her partner created a nonprofit called water inspired to study sharks but they quickly learned they needed to do more, so they come up with a plan start another company, a for-profit venture which takes people like me and my fellow adventurers swimming with the sharks. notice there are no cages. unlike most shark swimming tours, with this one, you are up close and personal. it's so crazy.

can be carried by the ocean current. focus in on the indian ocean gire. here. consistent on the northern side of that to have any debris that is buoyant enough to be pushed toward the west. so you think, well we could just follow the debris from the island further to the east. not that easy. it doesn't move in a direct line here. in fact i will be able to show you the ocean currents. they undulate. yes the movement is generally from australia heading towards reunion island here. but if you are trying how to get debris and trying to trace it back. a very complicated process. they're going to be using very complicated drift modeling to see -- if they can trace the debris back. but it is going to be very difficult because again. it has gone through a lot from what we think is the original crash site here. so one clue at least at this point here. that is better than what we have had in a very very long time. ayou saw there, upward of 16 months amount this point. the thing has been out in the indian ocean making it ashore. quite a long ways away. >> break it d

ocean every year.bags per foot of coastline around the globe. how did it come that our oceans are a dumping ground? >> it's convenience, out of sight out of mind. the tragedy of the comments. you can give it lots of names but the fact of the matter is the oceans are fundamentally critical to our survival. and so one of the things that the x prize we made a commitment to doing a series of ocean x prizes. we've done two so far. we want to do many more. at least five. so we're looking for the best ideas. where should we be launching x prizes in the oceans? and challenging independent scientists around the world to help solve these problems. as i wrote in abundance and i truly believe there is no problem we cannot solve. it is a matter of focusing the time the attention the capital the technology on solving them. >> on that note do you think oceans are the new space? we just saw these incredible photos of pluto. might -- should we be dedicating the resources and public interest towards the seas that we hav

they move things around the ocean. you have the indian ocean gire. look at that. if we put in play, we imagine now what we know anderson about where the search area is. where the debris would have gone into the water. see, not a leap of faith. perfectly possible for that debris to have ended up in the fullness of time on the western side of the indian ocean. >> yet -- if they're so sure -- if the consensus is that's where the plane went down. the area you first showed. that piece of debris. a large piece of debris. you would thing if it is from the plane there would be other large pieces of debris. so why hasn't anything been found in that search area? if you ask the question. why hasn't more debris. let's go back to the map of where this whole thing took place. if you go back to, to this area. the one unknown is why there hasn't been more debris found. in fact, any debris found so far. the standard answer is, that they have got there late. 12 days on. a lot of it had sunk. a lot had just disappeared. but now we start to find. you only need one piece, you get this

>> wolf, the oceans are constantly moving, driven by huge ocean gyres. and it's one in particular, the indian ocean, of course, it floes and you have way from australia north over to portions of africa. so you would say yes, it's possible. consider these big conveyor belts that pull things over to the west. however, within those there are tiny little eddies, so areas outside of the main gyre. so you can't get caught in that as well. even though they're huge conveyor belts, there are tiny portions that things could get caught into. this google earth image i want to show you. this is basically where they are searching, so zooming in just a bit. that gray book is the entire search area, that tiny purple box, that's where they're surging under water. you look at the distance, 2300 miles, is not possible? yes, it is possible, and you say why is it so far from the search area? the plane could still be on the bottom of the ocean floor. that's why they're still searching, but anything that floats could be caught in one of those ocean gyres and pushed all the way

you study these oceans.en that this piece did end up over there, what do you think the odds are that there could be more wreckage from this airplane, if it is, indeed, this airplane that traveled to the same area? >> there is very high likelihood there would be more debris arriving in that particular region in the weeks to come. >> all right. i'm sure investigators will keep an eye out for that. thank you very much. appreciate your insight there. >>> so the indian ocean is a huge place. like every ocean, it's filled with current including gyres. through the gyres a piece of debris could go. all day so i adopted him. when my back pain flared up, we both felt it. i tried tylenol but it was 6 pills a day. with aleve it's just two pills, all day. now i'm back! aleve. all day strong. did you know that the tripadvisor you have always trusted for reviews book...! now checks over 200 websites to find the best price? book...! book...! book...! so don't just visit tripadvisor, book...! at tripadvisor >>> a major devel

i want you to first describe the ocean currents in the indian ocean and i'm asking because i've justw geographically if this would all fit, then, how this piece washed up. and then let me add this. this is from twitter. i have this question. can oceanographers work backwards from the debris's final location to determine the shallow indication? >> let me address your first question. >> sorry for throwing a lot at you. >> no worries. the indian ocean has defined currents that oscillate in a certain direction and east to west across the equator is certainly possible that -- and could be likely that this piece of wing is from the malaysia airlines flight wreckage. where that search area is if in fact that plane broke up it could transport that large piece of buoyant debris across the indian ocean and deposit itself on the island of reunion. to address your second question -- actually could you repeat that? >> i'm sorry. here's the question. this is from twitter. "can oceanographers work backwards from the final location and follow ocean currents to determine the initial location?" >> you

currents to determine how far it might have traveled in the indian ocean. but lester at least we now know that malaysia 370 did go down somewhere in the indian ocean. we don't know why and we don't know exactly where. >> and tom, i'm curious what it may tell us. i know it's one piece, there's no black box that's been recovered. but might they at least be able to tell us whether the plane broke up in flight or maybe this piece came off during an impact with the water? >> i talked to an aviation expert and former airline captain john cox today. he said when you look at the photograph it does not look to him like it was violently ripped from the fuselage. he thinks that it may indicate it was more of a softer crash landing if that's possible. but also take a note of how much sea life was on the inside and outside of that plane -- the wing rather. that will give experts some clue as to perhaps where that sea life originated. they've got an awful lot of forensic work to do here. >> remarkable story. tom, thank you. >>> the call for justice in the wake of the fat

tom foreman explains what evidence will float the ocean's surface and what is likely to on the ocean. tom. >> reporter: miguel alison think about an airplane. a tough durable craft that has to survive in difficult circumstances. many parts are lightweight and they will float. let's start with the wings and tail. they are made of composite materials and lightweight. if they are torn into pieces they can float and float for a long time. underneath the plane, in the cargo hold. that may float it is torn open and flown free. think about the speeches you heard about floating seat cushions. think of those and what passengers bring on board. water bottles or cookies or chips. if they contain enough air could pop to the surface and stay for a long time. they have reason to keep looking for these if they found one piece. what won't float? the engines. these are important to investigations. they tell you if you still had fuel. if you went in under power or not under power. there's no way they are on top of the water. thousands of pounds. same can be said for the voice and data recorders. no wa

host: we are joined by a next bert on ocean currents. jonathan, thanks for joining us -- an expert on ocean currents. jonathan, thanks for joining us. this piece was found thousands of miles from where we thought the plane crashed. is it possible we have been looking in the wrong place all this time? jonathan: not necessarily. it is possible for debris to drift from the western side of australia all the way to india. the flow pattern is westward in this part of the indian ocean. host: so, we have the currents then that would explain why we have seen this piece of the wing washup. what about the barnacles, the sea life found on the wing? is there anyway investigators could look at those barnacles and maybe find out where this piece of the wing may have come from? jonathan: it is possible. as an oceanographer, i can only speculate. marine biologists will be able to identify and perhaps provide a better understanding of where these muscles possibly dwell or come from. this is entirely possible. host: definitely some new leads in the story,

this is the indian ocean gyre. the west coast of australia in a counterclockwise direction. eventually impacting and meeting the east coast of africa reunion island mauritius, tanzania. that is large and small-scale circulations this item may have undergone over the last 16 months. we have these drift analysises that we are going to monitor closely. let's quickly use an analogy. say we drop this plastic bot until the ocean and it floats like the device they found on the coast of reunion but it stops floating until it reaches an immoveable object like the coast of reunion coast of madagascar. this is where it becomes crucial to see where the debris can go. we have a high resolution and intellectual computer model from adrift.org.au. you can look it up on the internet yourself. if we were to place that device in the purported crash site all computer models conclude it will drift westward make that 4,000 kilometer trek just to the west. eventually ending up on the shores of east africa, or like reunion island for inst

they're found in the ocean.ft, and when they find a suitable substrate like driftwood, they settle and become adults. so that's what we're looking at. i assume look we all expect this to be part of flight 370, although i've got e-mails suggesting this is a plant, which i don't believe. but a lot of people believe in conspiracy theorys, that it was planted on the beach. but i assume barnacles take time to grow. would the growth of the barnacles but somehow, you know tell us a time frame. whether this would go back to a crash in march of 2014 for instance? >> it's possible. there are over 219 species of this particular kind of barnacles. so it's difficult the tell from the images that i've seen. but generally, once they find a suitable home will met metamorphasize and become the size seen on the debris. the debris has been in the water for 17 months. so we're looking at maybe one generation perhaps two, and would take a bit more careful examination to find out exactly how long they've been on that surface. but it'

this really proves that the plane did crash into the ocean. to that extent it's bad news for the relatives of the victims. this small piece of the wing flap doesn't give you any important information about why this plane disappeared. was it intentional act of a deranged pilot, some strange mechanical problem. we still got a long way to go on this. >> just for context, it's 6.5 feet by 8 feet. described as fairly intact. no visible burn marks or signs of impact. bob, as you talk about the disappearance theories and you mentioned one there about hijacked and landed somewhere else. this, if connected narrows down what the disappearance theories could actually be what caused it to go down sglt takes it either to the intentional act of a deranged pilot. but this is all conjecture without any forensic evidence. like the germanwings incident plane in the alps. or could there be a scenario where there might have been a mechanical problem or depressurization that caused the pilot exams all the passengers to be overcome and the plane fly on for hours. t

it has materials from the ocean in different types of biology across the indiana ocean. once this is under a microscope we will see the path where of this travelled from the coast of frequent all the way over to the priority search area and may find if we are looking at the right area or need to look in a different area. >> the same islander who found this piece of watt appears to be an aircraft wing found other bits of debris. he found a suit case that was shred shred shredded and found a bottle of water from china with many passengers being chinese on the jet. he found a bottle of cleaning solution that comes from singapore where the -- i am sorry, indonesia, i believe. can they be matched to the familiar flight or is this the debris you will find washing up on beaches in that part of the world? >> we have to be careful with that. we have had great experience looking deep in the ocean and we found out there is a lot of garbage in the ocean so lots can wash up and not associated with this aircraft. we will be able to bring scientist and engineers to look under the micro

no other 777 has been lost in the indian ocean. >> john ransom, if the plane actually hit the ocean intact, would we have a more compressed debris field? >> well, without having seen any other debris, it would be very difficult to tell. one thing this piece of airplane will be able to tell us is whether or not the flaps were with extended when the airplane hit the water, in all likelihood the geometry of the brake will tell whether or not the unit itself was still deep many to the wing where it normally sits during cruise or whether it was extended for low-speed flight. that may be another indication it could give the investigators. >> ian mcdonald, there are other islands in the indian ocean between possibly where this crash occurred and reunion island. what are the chances, do you think, of more debris showing up on some of these land masses in the indian ocean? >> well, there's a good chance. like most ocean bases it has a circulatory pattern, a gyre and it carries material off australia toward africa toward madagascar. so material that landed in that gyre could have been carried westwa
